15 <code class="function">glGetObjectLabel</code> retrieves the label of the object identified by
16 <em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em> within the namespace given by <em class="parameter"><code>identifier</code></em>.
17 <em class="parameter"><code>identifier</code></em> must be one of <code class="constant">GL_BUFFER</code>, <code class="constant">GL_SHADER</code>,
18 <code class="constant">GL_PROGRAM</code>, <code class="constant">GL_VERTEX_ARRAY</code>, <code class="constant">GL_QUERY</code>,

20 <code class="constant">GL_TEXTURE</code>, <code class="constant">GL_RENDERBUFFER</code>, <code class="constant">GL_FRAMEBUFFER</code>,
21 to indicate the namespace containing the names of buffers, shaders, programs, vertex array objects, query objects,
22 program pipelines, transform feedback objects, samplers, textures, renderbuffers and frame
23 buffers, respectively.
24 </p><p>
25 <em class="parameter"><code>label</code></em> is the address of a string that will be used to store the object label.
26 <em class="parameter"><code>bufSize</code></em> specifies the number of characters in the array identified by <em class="parameter"><code>label</code></em>.
27 <em class="parameter"><code>length</code></em> contains the address of a variable which will receive the the number of characters in the object label.
28 If <em class="parameter"><code>length</code></em> is NULL, then it is ignored and no data is written. Likewise, if <em class="parameter"><code>label</code></em>
29 is NULL, or if <em class="parameter"><code>bufSize</code></em> is zero then no data is written to <em class="parameter"><code>label</code></em>.
